Palestine’s Land Day: 50 Years of Resistance

On the 50th anniversary of Land Day, Al Jazeera reported on the history of this significant day for Palestinians. Land Day, commemorated annually on March 30th, marks a key moment of Palestinian resistance against Israeli land annexation. The report by Hala Al Shami focuses on the events of March 30, 1976, when Palestinians organized a general strike. This strike was in direct response to the Israeli government's policy of expropriating Palestinian land. Land Day has since become a symbol of Palestinian identity and ongoing opposition to land confiscation.
